Late at night, Konoha Village Uchiha Station.
"You have obtained 70 soul fragments. Do you want to proceed with the first stand extraction?"
The tinnitus mixed with the noise from afar echoed in Shien's ears.
Shien sat in a pool of blood in a daze. The penetrating wound on his chest was slowly healing, and the gravel in the courtyard was a bit rough on his butt.
He smeared the blood on his chest.
Still warm.
Shien looked confused, and all he could say was one word:
"ah?"
A series of fragments of memories flooded into my mind:
Uchiha Shien, 18 years old, is idle and uneducated. After being expelled from the Ninja School, he lives on his family's minimum living allowance and is known as the shame of Uchiha.
The moon was bright tonight, and I was drinking and admiring the moon when I saw a man squatting on a telephone pole.
Then...
Shien logged in.
"I traveled through time?"
"Or is it the world of Hokage ninja?"
"Hokage Ninja", Shien has heard of it.
I've only heard of it.
Shien was born into a small town test-taker family. Ever since he could remember, he had devoted himself to his studies, seldom watched anime, and knew very little about Hokage.
He only knows some of the more popular events, such as:
Naruto has the Nine Tails fox sealed inside his stomach.
Sasuke's "Amateras."
as well as...
I learned about Tsunade, Ino, Little Sakura, etc. from a website starting with A.
As for the details of the story, Shien knew nothing about it.
Traveled to an anime world, but didn't understand the plot.
How to play this?
"You have obtained 70 soul fragments. Do you want to proceed with the first stand extraction?"
As he was thinking, the tinnitus gradually faded away, and Shien heard the cold and unfamiliar voice again.
He breathed a sigh of relief and grinned, "There is a system."
Shien opened the system interface:
JOJO Stand System.
Derived from "JoJo's Bizarre Adventure", it includes all the Stands that have appeared in it. Stands can be obtained by drawing cards and then trained.
Shien has also not watched the JOJO series.
Perhaps the system knew this, so it left a "plot review" function in the corner of the system.
Shien can view manga from 1 to 8.
Without rushing to read the manga, Shien clicked on the card drawing interface.
The so-called stand is the embodiment of the master's mental power. It possesses all kinds of magical abilities and can fight, defend, and detect for the master.
Because it is the embodiment of mental power, once the stand is injured, the original body will also be seriously injured.
The two are closely linked and are two sides of the same coin.
There are many stand-in silhouettes on the card drawing page, with two options below: single draw and ten consecutive draws, and next to it is the card drawing introduction:
"Normal draw pool, can produce 4~5 star Stands, Stand upgrade materials, special props, etc. 10 soul fragments can be drawn once."
"Four-star Stands: Stone Freedom, Emperor, Hermit Purple, Silver Chariot..."
"Five-star Stands: Crazy Diamond, Metalwork, Star Platinum (Timeless), White Snake..."
There are many kinds and they are densely packed.
Shien's eyes focused on the first sentence.
"This is the normal card pool, does that mean there is a special card pool?"
The system did not respond to his question.
It just popped up again to suggest whether to draw, and a message appeared on the card drawing interface:
[First time drawing a card, a five-star substitute will appear in 10 consecutive draws. ]
This is good news.
This card pool doesn't even have a guaranteed minimum. God knows how much you have to invest to get any output.
The murderer who killed his predecessor might still be nearby. By getting a 5-star substitute first, Shien can at least have some means of self-protection.
He glanced at the balance in the upper right corner.
Soul fragments: 70.
10 fragments are drawn once, and there are still 30 soul fragments left.
Not enough for ten consecutive times.
There are three ways to obtain Soul Fragments:
Defeat powerful enemies, change the world line, and mortgage your own soul.
The first two are easy to understand, it's nothing more than killing monsters and changing the direction of the plot.
But the last mortgaged soul -
"Mortgage your own soul to exchange for soul fragments. Pay off the mortgage amount within 24 hours and you can redeem your soul. Otherwise, you will lose the mortgaged soul limit forever."
Current soul mortgage value: 500 soul fragments.
500, which means 50 draws.
Is my soul only worth 648?
Shien complained in his heart.
What would it be like to lose part of your soul?
Shien doesn't know.
I don't want to know.
He would never take out a loan to draw a card.
Shien stood up from the pool of blood and made plans for the future:
Go.
With Uchiha bloodline and the Stand system, you can develop in secret and wait for a chance to extract a powerful Stand in the future, so that you can live a good life without having to work overtime, without suffering, with a little money, and with girls in your arms.
Just thinking about it makes me smile.
"Brother Shien, save...save me..."
A faint call from inside the house interrupted Shien's thoughts.
Anyone else?
Shien frowned slightly, pushed open the door and walked into the house.
A little girl about four or five years old with two pigtails was lying on the tatami, with blood oozing from a scarlet wound on her abdomen.
She reached out her hand to Shien.
Shien held her hand, cold, trembling, and young, and memories of the girl emerged in his mind:
Her father died in the war, and her mother became an alcoholic in grief, beating her children when she was drunk.
Although his predecessor was a good-for-nothing, he was very kind to the children in the village and often used the subsistence allowance he received to buy candies for the children.
The little girl didn't dare to go home, so she kept pestering Shien all day, coming to his house to play games and eat snacks.
"When I grow up, I want to marry Brother Shien."
This is what girls often say.
Her mother drank too much again tonight, so she came to find Shien.
"Brother Shien...I don't want to die..."
The joy of getting the system faded away quietly.
Shien picked up the girl and ran out without saying a word.
doctor!
See a doctor!
Shien hugged her and ran out of the courtyard, then realized that he still had the system.
He remembered that there were several Stands with healing abilities, and if he could draw them, he could save the child's life.
"Hold on for a moment, I'll be there soon—"
Shien couldn't say the second half of the sentence.
The girl in his arms had gray eyes and was lifeless.
She is dead.
Shien didn't recognize her, and the fragments of his memory of his previous life were also intermittent.
But as a modern person, it is impossible not to be touched when witnessing a fresh, tender little life die in front of you.
His predecessor was an adult after all, but he was a waste for many years, wasting Uchiha resources, and someone couldn't stand it and killed him.
Shien couldn't agree with it, but he could understand the logic.
But what could be wrong with a five-year-old?
"quack--"
The crow's cry attracted Shien's attention.
Crows were circling in the sky, and the night sky was absolutely dark.
Shien twitched his nose.
After walking out of the courtyard, the smell of blood became even stronger.
The evening breeze gently pushed away the dark clouds, the moonlight shone again, and Shien could see clearly.
Corpse.
There were corpses everywhere.
Old people, young people, children.
Not a single one was left alive.
Shien's scalp tingled. "What's going on? The devils have entered the village?"
He stood in the street.
Behind me was the brightly lit Hokage Village, and in front of me was the blood-filled Uchiha garrison. The night wind blew on my body, and my heart sank.
First comes fear, but after fear comes anger.
It's not because of the emotions for the deceased in the fragments of memory of the previous life.
It was simply the anger of an ordinary person who had received modern education and understood the value of life towards the inhumane massacre.
Fighting and killing are inevitable in the world of Hokage. It's normal for someone to die in a hot-blooded boy's comic, but...
Kill the old man who trembles when he walks?
Killing a child who is still just learning to speak?
Is this something a f*****g human could do?!
brute.
Only a beast could do such a thing.
"Ahhhh!!!"
The scream came from not far away, and it sounded like a child.
survivor.
Shien took a step forward instinctively, then stopped suddenly.
The murderer massacred the entire Uchiha clan, which shows that he is very powerful.
Konoha Village has not come to rescue yet, which means that the murderer probably has someone behind him who is responsible for clearing the area for him.
The murderer had strength, power, and premeditation.
Risking his own life, he rushed over to save a strange child.
Is it worth it?
The second after this question popped up, Shien took the second step.
What's the value or not?
After all, I have traveled through time and space, and my life is earned, plus I have the system to rely on.
Hi?
If a grown man doesn't even have this little courage, he's a dog.
Shien took a big step forward. The strong wind ruffled his hair, but it couldn't shake his eyes.
Deep in the pupils, a golden spirit ignites.
In the night, it is like the scorching sun.
...
Uchiha Itachi looked down at Sasuke who was sitting on the ground, his eyes cold but with a hint of madness.
Obito, wearing a mask, stood by with his arms folded, looking like he was watching a good show.
At this moment, they simultaneously heard footsteps coming from afar.
Pace... no, no pace at all.
Breathing disorder is not the right way to be a Jōnin.
Just an ordinary person's level.
Shien rushed out at the street corner.
He saw a small, crying Sasuke, and Uchiha Itachi and Obito standing opposite.
"A fish that slipped through the net?"
Obito glanced at the bloodline on Shien's chest and said, "Itachi, are you too tired? You can't even kill people well. Do you want me to do it for you?"
"No need."
Uchiha Itachi drew his knife and said coldly, "I didn't expect to have to kill you again,"
He knows Shien.
The shame of the Uchiha clan, a professional household that relies on the minimum living allowance.
During the Third Ninja World War, most of the Uchiha clan participated in the war.
The only exception was Shien, who was in his prime. Because he was weaker than a child and didn't know any ninjutsu, he was not even qualified to serve as a logistics personnel. He spent the three wars lying at home.
Being such a waste, he is considered a celebrity.
Seeing that it was Shien, the hope that had just emerged in Sasuke's eyes was extinguished again.
"Pooh!"
Shien spat on the ground: "You beast, why are you trying to get close to me?"
He took a deep breath, walked forward, and patted Sasuke's little head gently.
"Go, squat over there."
Shien looked at Uchiha Itachi and Obito again and gave the system an order:
"Pledge my soul, and then..."
"Ten consecutive card draws!"
